Three-colored ribbons hung like waves in the corridors of the student apartments, and the students were beaming with joy as they walked.

It's time for the anniversary.

Not only will there be no class break for three days, no need to wear a school uniform for three days, you can choose any clothes, and there will be no 'curfew' at night, which will be a rare opportunity for new students who are curious about Teorit for a long time.

Of course, even more important are the fireworks, floats and the 'food battle'.

"Maika, are you really going to fight for food?"

Holding a goblin mask in his hand, Standt in a trench coat turned his head to ask Mika as he struggled to apply paint to his exposed hands to make them consistent with the goblin mask.

"Hmm."

"It's a rare opportunity."

Maika, who was sitting cross-legged there, nodded, and as she spoke, her breathing was not disturbed in the slightest.

"But have you ever wondered what kind of powerful opponent you'll encounter?"

"Although there are referees in the game, accidents still happen!"

Standt sat down in front of his friend and asked with a serious expression.

"A strong opponent?"

"I can't ask for it!"

"Accident?"

"I'll take it as an experience!"

Maika's expression was determined, and he did not waver in the slightest.

"So, have you ever wondered what to do when you meet the Chief?"

Seeing his friend's warlike appearance, Stalter knew that he shouldn't ask, but he still couldn't help it, because what he asked was likely to be true.

Maika's expression froze, and her breathing was chaotic.

After about four or five seconds, the chief assistant said slowly, "When I meet the chief, I will give up." ”

A strong opponent, Maika is not annoying, even delighted.

However, Qin Ran obviously did not belong to the powerful, but to ...... Despair!

In the face of despair, Maika is not a fool and naturally knows what to do.

Stalter breathed a sigh of relief and gently patted his friend's shoulder, he was really worried that his friend would fight the Chief regardless of it.

You must know that although the chief is harmless in his normal state, he is ruthless and ruthless when he enters the combat state.

The corpses are the best proof of this.

Especially the unexpected death of Professor Duyle a few days ago, as the chief assistant, Stelt knows some inside information that ordinary people don't know.

Although most people said that Professor Thales handled it properly to avoid the troubles of the neutral professors, he knew that the chief had visited the neutral professors one by one in the evening, and then the neutral professors had died down.

As for what happened?

He had no way of knowing.

However, he knew that the next day, when the neutral professors appeared in the field of vision, they were all in wheelchairs or with their arms fixed.

These professors said that there was something wrong with the experiment.

But he did not believe.

Because, when he asked the chief to sign the next day, he clearly heard the chief saying "I'm returning the favor" and "I can't cause trouble to the good guy", "However, it's a good income, I really want to kill these guys!" Such self-talk.

Stalter didn't understand what the favor and profit were, but the good man, he knew that he was referring to Professor Tells, and the rest of the matter needed to be said?

The reason why those neutral professors were able to attend this anniversary in wheelchairs is really thanks to Professor Tels.

Otherwise, I'm afraid they will all follow in the footsteps of Duyil.

Therefore, for the surrounding statement that Professor Thales properly resolved the accidental death of Duyle, Stalter admitted.

After all, their chief was really looking at Professor Tyres's face to show mercy.

There weren't many things that would make the chief merciful.

This time the 'food war'?

As if thinking of some bleak picture, Stalter sighed.

Also sighing was Qin Ran.

If he could, he wanted to solve all the problems more directly, but unfortunately, the opponents he met were more cautious and cunning than the other, and he had to choose to cooperate with them.

Qin Ran, who was carrying a bag and many tools and necessities for the exploration of the secret realm, quietly left the student apartment, and he walked to a hidden position, bending his bow and arrows.

Sou!

The arrows shot out, and Qin Ran's figure was like the wind, chasing the arrows away.

The students were all looking forward to the start of the anniversary, and none of them noticed the arrows shot and Qin Ran who followed closely behind.

The arrows that shot out did not take an arc like ordinary arrows, but kept changing direction in the air, as if an invisible hand was manipulating the arrow.

It took a full minute for the arrow to hit the ground.

Qin Ran appeared next to him the moment the arrow landed, and he looked at the environment in front of him.

It's still the complicated alleys of Teorit.

At the end of the alley is a small door.

And behind the door, it should be the E-15 secret realm.

However, Qin Ran didn't act immediately, he turned around and looked behind him, and under Qin Ran's gaze, a well-dressed figure appeared.

The face is handsome, and the hair is meticulously groomed, just like the leather shoes on the other party's feet, shiny as new.

"Hello, Your Excellency 2567."

"I'm a messenger sent by the patriarch of the Ryder family."

"Our patriarch would like to see you."

The other party smiled and walked towards Qin Ran as he spoke.

Looking at Qin Ran, who was close at hand, this envoy of the Ryder family was really overjoyed, in fact, the other party who had already infiltrated Teorit was almost about to give up this mission.

The target person is always watched.

There's Teorit school, and the Dark Eaters.

It's really inconvenient to start.

However, what the messenger didn't expect was that at the moment before the anniversary, the other party took the initiative to travel alone.

And based on Qin Ran's behavior and the [Positioning Arrow] in his hand, this envoy quickly deduced what Qin Ran wanted to do.

Enter the E-15 Realm!

This envoy is no stranger to this extremely undeveloped secret realm.

Most of the third-year students of Teorit entered this secret realm for the first time, and it is also the secret realm that most professors like to experience students.

Because this secret realm is almost no danger except for the constant change of position, which is a headache.

It is the mildest of all secret realms.

Of course, it is also the most barren.

And the ever-changing location?

After so many years of exploration, familiar people have been able to find the location of E-15 without using the [Positioning Arrow].

However, it is still very difficult for most freshmen to enter the secret realm in advance!

But it's not impossible.

Even, this envoy can imagine that if the target person in front of him makes such a request, the Teorit school will definitely have a more appropriate arrangement for the other party to experience the secret realm.

It's a pity that the other party is too young to know how to use his advantage.

The stubbornness, simplicity, and recklessness of young people, when they come together, are stupid!

Of course, the messenger didn't hate such stupidity.

Without such stupidity, how would he accomplish his mission?

"Rest assured, we have no ill will."

"I just want to get some information out of your mouth."

The envoy of the Ryder family was still smiling, and secretly calculated the distance between himself and the target in his heart, and when the most appropriate distance was reached, the envoy shot directly.

What invitation?

What is non-malicious?

Although the patriarch wanted to see the other party, he didn't say a way to take the other party back.

Please go back as well.

It's the same with catching it back.

What's more, Leo. Ryder, Mofen. Did Ryder die in vain?

Even if the two of them are idiots and crap, they are also members of the Ryder family!

Since you dare to attack the members of the Ryder family, you should know what the consequences will be!

Sou!

The speed of this envoy was very fast, and he appeared in front of Qin Ran in the blink of an eye, and his right hand grabbed straight at Qin Ran's neck.

The sweet taste escaped with the blow of this palm.

But after being sweet and greasy, it is an indescribable stench, just like a spoiled, sour, and moldy cake, which not only makes people sick, but also can't bear to look at it directly.

The same is true of the palm of the messenger's hand.

The clean, slender palm was thin, sallow, with only a layer of skin hanging from it, like the palm of a dried corpse.

But the speed is faster, and it also brings up strange tracks.

Obviously it's not just a secret art.

"Let's get caught!"

The messenger sneered, and his outstretched palm slammed into it.

And then......

The envoy was grabbed by Qin Ran's neck and picked up, and the other party's hands showed a strange twist, like a three-section stick.

Everything happened so fast.

It was so fast that the messenger didn't react at all, and it wasn't until Qin Ran grabbed his neck that he let out a wail, but the next moment, the wailing stopped abruptly.

Click!

With the sound of his neck being twisted, the other party was thrown to the ground by Qin Ran.

"You did it first!"

Qin Ran said this, and after searching for the loot, he turned around and walked towards the small door.

The door is locked.

But it's not a regular lock, and there's no keyhole or anything like that.

This door is controlled by a secret lock, and it must be opened with the corresponding spell, Qin Ran didn't know the spell, so he raised his legs.

Bang!

The door opened.

Qin Ran carried his bag and strode in, quickly disappearing into the corridor.

After Qin Ran disappeared for about a minute, Professor Terres, who looked distressed, walked out of the shadows, followed by Seniore and Leonard.

"Did he spot us?"

Leonard, who was holding the puff, asked.

"Definitely!"

"Didn't you hear the last words of that little imp?"

"'You did it first', that's obviously what you told us!"

Seniore rolled his eyes and began to crouch down to examine the body, and the corners of his mouth twitched when he saw the arms of the Ryder family emissary who looked like a three-hucked stick.

"What a fast, weird kick, it's like a snake jumping out of the bushes!"

Recalling the scene just now, Seniore couldn't help but comment.

"But 2567 is still a good boy."

"At least, he listened to my last persuasion."

The good old professor defended Qin Ran.

"yes, he listened."

"If you don't take the initiative, wait for others to make a move, and then kill the other party directly...... Although, I don't think there's anything wrong with that. ”

Seniore shrugged his shoulders and began to examine the body more closely.

And the good old professor who heard this sentence became more and more distressed.

He thought that the last conversation with Qin Ran was a little inconsiderate.

It should be more cautious.

Maybe it will change Qin Ran's style of acting and make him more calm.

"When he comes back from E-15, I should talk to him again."

The good old professor made the decision.

"This anniversary would be boring without this little ghost."

Leonard muttered as he ate the puffs.

"But maybe it's a good thing?"

Senior's lips twitched, and he muttered to himself in a voice that only he could hear.

Slightly better, the guards began to carry the corpses.

Compared to the previous surprise, the guards at this moment are very calm, it is the kind of calm that they are accustomed to, and there have been too many similar things that have happened recently.

So much so that they're numb.

And the identity of the Ryder family emissary?

There is nothing surprising about it.

They've carried two of them before.

The kind that was thrown from the upper floor, and fell neatly.

The Teorit school personnel quickly evacuated as the body was carried away, and the peeps who had been watching the area also evacuated later.

They relayed the news of 2567's entry into the Secret Realm back to their respective organizations.

A lot of people breathed a sigh of relief.

Some smiled absentmindedly.

Someone waited another half hour before frowning.

Because, he received accurate information, Qin Ran did enter the E-15 secret realm, not a false shot.

"The final, uncertain factor, has finally disappeared for the time being."

The figure sitting in the darkness took a deep breath, and he slowly stood up from the darkness and limped outside.

……

Minutes and seconds passed.

Sunrise, sunset.

When the moon appeared in the sky, the Teorit campus was as bright as day.

Street lamps are supplemented, and various color lamps are the mainstay.

Among the colors, there is the sound of various musical instruments.

Cheerful trumpets, melodious cellos and drums beating one after another, dressed in various services, some of them even wearing masks as if they were going to a masquerade ball.

When the first float pulled out of the freshman apartment, Teorit's anniversary celebration began.

At this time, a long-awaited black shadow flashed away from the shadow of the alley of E-15.

The dark shadow did not hesitate, and headed straight towards the first destination of the trip.

Colander Alley!

At this moment, this branch alley located somewhere in Area E, near the main teaching building, is also hung with colorful lights, but compared with the bustle of the main road, it is deserted.

Even if one or two figures walk by occasionally, there is hardly any festive atmosphere.

Because, each of these figures is cold and tyrannical.

Concealing their bodies and appearances, they walked along the shadows and entered the building on one side.

The gatekeeper is a short guy.

He stared, checking everyone who entered.

There is no need for code words, and there is no need to show your face.

For the Dark Eater, the extraordinary aura is the hallmark.

The gatekeeper then saw a dark shadow coming from the E-15 alley.

When he sensed the aura hidden in the other party's body like a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, the gatekeeper did not hesitate to get out of the way, and bowed and saluted, "My lord, welcome to your arrival." ”
